For the legal aspect
---> TCL TK comes with a BSD licence. Thanks 81.174.184.11!
The ethical aspect: a word on the human aspects of a commercial TCL/TK app
Of course beyond the legal aspects there are human aspects attached to a commercial TCL/TK app.
Since TCL/TK has developed such a strong community of coders who kindly help each other, it is clear that one's success is everyone's success. If a commercial TCL/TK becomes a success, it is only fair to the TCL/TK Community that the programmer does kind gestures to the community who has helped him in the first place: gestures such as publishing TCL/TK books for children, paying for the wikit connection for 5, 10 years and so on.
Gratefulness, giving back to the Community are the key words here.
